“Winter is coming” but it’s not Ned Stark from ‘Game of Thrones’ that is uttering these words as “the last winter of humankind” is actually happening in Victorian England. We’ve seen the trailers and the prequels of the upcoming ‘Doctor Who’ Christmas episode from the BBC, but this surprise trailer popped up on our radar which we just had to share! It’s the BBC America ‘Doctor Who’ TV spot for the Christmas episode ‘The Snowmen!’

With Mark Sheppard (‘Doctor Who’ , ‘Supernatural’) voicing the introduction of the TV trailer, this video has lots of footage not included in the ones from the UK. Not only is the sense of urgency that the doctor is needed, you also get to see the Ice Governess and more of those creepy snowmen in action.

Also included are more scenes showcasing Clara, the Doctor’s new companion. While not having seen the episode yet, from the looks of the footage released so far, the Doctor does have seem to have met a companion that will keep him on his toes. Matt Smith and Jenna Louise Coleman have a great chemistry that comes across the screen quite well and it looks like Clara (as well as Coleman) will prove that she is the right companion for the Doctor.

Only 7 more days until Christmas and the episode that Whovians have been waiting for! Until then, enjoy the trailer below!

Janice Kay

Janice's first memories of the genre were of watching the original 'Star Trek' and classic 'Doctor Who' episodes (Tom Baker, aka the Fourth Doctor, was her first). Soon, she was introduced to 'Godzilla' and her addiction then spread to books, magazines, movies and comics. Janice continued as a closet geek as her thirst and love for sci-fi grew and was only second to her love of baking. Then one night, on a whim, she answered a tweet to be a writer for ScienceFiction.com and the geek girl insider her was soon set free. Within 3 years she became the Senior Editor for the site. When not writing or editing for ScienceFiction.com, Janice is scouring the internet to feed her sci-fi cravings while defending conspiracy theories, protecting scientific theorems and loving all things science fiction.... and baking cookies.
